[quote=@Lmpkio]I will be honest though that I worry over the 'superhuman speeds' thing, however the high-risk high reward factor going into her balances things out. How fast can she go exactly?[/quote]

Well, when I was making her, the speed was "Faster than the monsters".

But let's give this some actual thought - I'm godawful at putting numbers onto things like these. Hell, I even had Dino help me figure out Abigail's weight - fictional objects given a numerical value is a surefire way to make my head hurt. To start off with, I can safely say that 'superhuman' =/= superhero speed power. Trying to reach the speeds that The Flash can accomplish in the middle of a dense jungle or a craggy volcanic planet is just asking to get a limb stuck somewhere and have it ripped clean off. When I say superhuman, I mean above-average; as fast as, if not a little more, than a professional sprinter with the suit on. Even without the suit Abigail's childhood and early teenage years (the years where your body grows and develops) were spent hauling ass away from monsters, so it's not surprising that she's a speedy little bugger when she has to be, and I evened out that little biological benefit with her pitiful physical strength when it comes to fighting or lifting any object that's heaver than she is. 

The reduced weight from the suit means she can run longer distances at sprinting pace without tiring out, but even sprinting in near zero G will still eventually exhaust Abigail. When Abigail tires out she doesn't lose velocity immediately, but she's more prone to tripping up or stumbling which can have some pretty severe consequences. Her 'superhuman speed' will only ever be used in short/medium bursts, and hopefully the environment around her will allow her to avoid sprinting. For example, I doubt she'll be doing a lot of running in a straight line on K2B-894; there will be a lot of tree-climbing, ducking, sporadic changes of direction and swinging from vines that'll break up her movement quite nicely.

Put her in a big flat plain that stretches out for miles and expect her to outrun any beast that's considerably bigger than her and yeah, she's definitely fucked.

tldr - She won't be running fast for long, at top speed she's a little faster than a professional sprinter with that suit on, the suit makes things a little easier, and her sprinting will be broken up with all sorts of acrobatics anyway.

Thanks! I thought there was an explorer-shaped hole in this big-game hunting and exploration unit that needed balancing out.
